This is the part I want to emphasize. Was this called a "public meeting"? Was the meeting, where only Birney and a few other local bigwigs were invited, was that called a "public meeting"? If the general public, those butchers, bakers, candlestick makers, homemakers, brick layers, plumbers, garbage workers, etc., people who aren't millionaires and media moguls, have one moment to have a real impact on this thing, the wheelers and dealers shouldn't be surprised when the average Jane and Joe knock it down. I'm getting asked every day, by people who live in the "separate school district", if they'll be able to vote on this thing. I haven't met one yet who says they'd vote for it.
